The Ultimate Baseball Book, Expanded and Updated Trade paper - 2000
de Okrent, Daniel; Harris Lewine
THE ULTIMATE BASEBALL BOOK has more than lived up to its name. Spanning the complete history of the sport from the fledgling leagues in the late 1870s to the powerhouses of the 1990s and revealing in the process what a remarkable effect baseball has had on our collective experience, this is THE book for any and all baseball fans, certain to grace coffee and bedside tables alike. Designed with that wonderful nostalgia that the sport itself so often evokes, THE ULTIMATE BASEBALL BOOK combines timeless images with a sweeping narrative history as well as essays on various idols and icons by such heavy hitters as Red Smith, Wilfrid Sheed, Roy Blount, Jr., Tom Wicker, and Geoge Will. This new edition covers baseball through the nineties, the decade when home run records fell and the sport reclaimed its hold on America, and celebrates the national game in ultimate style.

WHEN Alexander Joy Cartwright brought the Knickerbockers and the New York Nine to the Elysian Fields in Hoboken, New Jersey, on June 19, 1846, to play the first game of baseball, it was his impression that he was creating a sport that would be played by gentlemen of leisure for recreation and amusement.
